Chapter 959 A Special Comic Company

After persuasion, Jones finally accepted Gu Miao's kindness, and the company would sponsor Sanjie's future studies.

no way!
Jones doesn't want to owe favors, but the tuition fees of universities in North America are too expensive. Many people have worked for almost 20 years before they can barely pay off their tuition loans.

Now there is a kind-hearted person who will not only bear Sanjay's future tuition and living expenses, but also help secure channels for prestigious schools, completely exempting Jones from worries, so why hesitate?

As for enjoying the company's preferential treatment and funding, you have to pay for the company, which Jones thinks is very reasonable.

There is no free lunch in the world.

Don't want to pay anything, but want to benefit from whoring for nothing, how can there be such a good thing?

Moreover.

Gu Miao didn't make a mandatory request, she just admired the little guy Sanjie, even if he became Shang Zhongyong in the future, it didn't really matter.

Betting on future investment, who can guarantee 100% return?
It's nothing more than sponsoring a tuition fee. For Gu Miao, who is worth tens of billions, it's just a drop in the bucket. It's too unreasonable to care about the reward for such a trivial matter.

After Jones left, Gu Miao was not in a hurry to meet little Sanjie, but asked Dave to be the guide and rushed to California overnight.

What's so special about California?
To be honest, there is actually no attraction to Gu Miao, nor does he have any relatives or friends living in California.

The reason why he came to California, and rushed there overnight, was mainly because the target person of his trip to North America was currently on vacation in California.

"George Brooke, the uncrowned king of North American comics! The Mardete comics company founded by him is the comic publishing company with the highest circulation and the highest market recognition in North America."

As Dave walked, he explained to Gu Miao and Nantong: "Because I used to engage in comic adaptation and animation, I have dealt with him before. He is a very difficult old man."

"How difficult is it?" Gu Miao asked.

"Let's put it this way, in the early years, George may still have feelings for MD Comic Company, and he is considered a relatively pure comic man. But now George is a proper villain businessman, and he completely regards MD Company as a cash cow." Dai husband explained.

MD Comics?

Hearing this abbreviation suddenly, Gu Miao's forehead straightened with black lines, and she really wanted to complain, who came up with this abbreviation?Can you be more serious?

Ok!

The name is not the point.

The point is that this comic company, called "Made" for short, can be regarded as the representative of American comics in this era, which is equivalent to the parallel world version of "Amazing Comics".

Considering the future development of Wanbao Comics, as well as the future and potential of American comic superheroes, Gu Miao wanted to take this treasure company at a low price while no one was paying attention.

But obviously.

According to Dave's description, the founder and chairman of Mardete Comic Company is difficult to deal with. As a treacherous and slippery businessman, Gu Miao is very likely to be killed by him.

This made Gu Miao feel bad.

After arriving at the agreed place, an inconspicuous villa, Gu Miao saw George Brook, a shrewd and cunning old man with white hair and leaning on a cane.

"Welcome, a guest from China from afar!"

"Thank you!"

Thanks to Dave's warning in advance, Gu Miao was not deceived by the kindness of the old man's benevolent features, and quickly saw through the old man's true colors.

Still want to dig a hole to harm him?
It's true that he's young, but being young doesn't mean he's an idiot. It's no wonder Gu Miao couldn't see such an obvious way of stalking customers.

……

"This old man wants to kill us with a bad stomach!"

When leaving the villa, Nantong said angrily: "Mardete Comic Company is worth two to three hundred million dollars at most, he just opened his mouth to say one billion, and I don't know where the courage came from..."

"The starting price is like this."

Compared to Nantong who was filled with anger, Gu Miao was very calm. He only heard him say: "He wants to kill us, so we just don't buy it."

The reason why they want to acquire Mardete comics company is nothing more than to open up the situation as soon as possible, and at the same time grab a batch of high-quality American comic IP at a low price.

But let's be honest.

Even without the acquisition of Mardete Comics, these goals can be achieved.Even if it is really necessary to open up the situation through acquisitions, is Mardete the only choice?
Certainly not!

Although Mardete Comics is the comic company with the highest market share in North America and the largest number of original IPs, it is not the only choice for Wanbao Comics.

"Actually, there is another company."

Nan Tong hesitated and said: "When I was screening, I wanted to buy this comic company, and use it as a springboard to open up the situation in North America."

"But this company is relatively small in scale, and there are many private goods implanted in the works, and the nature is quite special..."

ah?Special in nature? !
Gu Miao was a little surprised. Isn't it just implanting private goods? Many comics are doing this. Why does Nan Tong show embarrassment when he mentions this company?
"Ordinary implanted private goods, of course I would not say that. The reason why I ruled out this company is mainly because they like to play cards of political correctness, ideology and patriotism in their works."

When Nan Tong said this, the corners of his mouth twitched and he said, "Do you dare to contact this kind of comic company?"

That really doesn't have a good effect.

They mainly focus on patriotism and national dreams, and their works are all correct lines that cater to the mainstream of North American society.

This is definitely nothing in the eyes of ordinary Yingjiang people. After all, there are quite a lot of people who like Wolf Warrior.

But in the eyes of foreigners like Gu Miao and Nan Tong, the nature is completely different.They are North American wolf warriors, and you, a Huaguo company, want to buy them?
Dude is not awake yet!
Even if someone is willing to sell it, do you really dare to buy it?Acquiring such a company, and later revealing its works to others, Wanbao must not be scolded to death in China?

"It doesn't matter!"

Gu Miao shrugged her shoulders and said, "As long as the works don't blacken Huaguo and target Huaguo people, I think it's acceptable."

As for the "American-style political correctness" that Nan Tong cares about, as well as Lao Mei's inexplicable sense of responsibility and mission to protect the world, Gu Miao thinks it's normal.

When this manga is published, it is for ordinary people to read. If that is the case, why not let the old beauty Giegie save the world?
In the early days of domestic online novels, they were still clamoring for the destruction of the sun and the United States...

To put it bluntly, no double standards.

As long as this company does not implant private content about Huaguo in the works, the rest of the American dream, political correctness, and personal heroism are actually nothing.

"Would you like to make contact then?"

Nan Tong hesitated, as if thinking of something, frowned and said: "But the protagonists of the comics under this company seem to be non-human..."

non-human? !

Isn't that just right!Gu Miao, who was originally not very interested, immediately became excited when she heard that the protagonists under her banner were all non-human beings.

　sorry, overslept
